Objective: : The composition and morphology of the internal and external surfaces of membranes are important for preventing migration of epithelial and connective cells, and allow the installation of osteogenic cells for bone growth. The objective of this study was to analyze the morphology and composition of three types of commercially available resorbable collagen membranes.

Methods: Three types of collagen membranes, with different compositions and coming from different animals, were used: 1) Dental Surgidry F (bovine collagen type I); 2) Bio-Gide® (porcine collagen type I and III); and 3) OsseoGuard™ (bovine collagen type I). These membranes were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometry.

Results: The membranes showed distinct superficial architectures, porosities and chemical compositions. The membranes exhibited different surfaces and thicknesses, ranging from 0.32 mm to 0.75 mm. The chemical compositions exhibited a high percentage of niobium (Nb) in the Surgidry and OsseoGuard™ membranes; the Bio-Gide® membrane showed a greater proportion of calcium and aluminum relative to other elements.

Conclusion: Different types of resorbable collagen membranes exhibit different morphologies and chemical composition, which could lead to differences in the mode and time of resorption of the membranes used for guided tissue regeneration procedures.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the results of combination therapy involving bone grafting and two different resorbable collagen membranes in 1-, 2- and 3-wall infrabony defects.

Methods: A total of 174 patients with infrabony defects (≥ 7 mm periodontal probing depth) were randomized to receive deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) with either a native porcine non-crosslinked collagen membrane (N-CM, control, n = 87) or a novel porcine crosslinked collagen membrane (C-CM, test, n = 87). Clinical parameters, including periodontal probing depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and gingival recession (GR), were recorded at baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks.

Background: Odontogenic cysts of the jaws are pathologies that require timely recognition and management. The initial diagnosis is based on clinical and radiographic appearance and dental history. A variety of surgical treatments are used for odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) depending on the clinical and radiographic presentation.

Introduction: Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is being increasingly utilized in surgical procedures due to various improvements in clinical outcomes. More recently, a heating process to denature albumin in the platelet poor plasma (PPP) layer has been shown to extend the resorption time of PRF from a typical 2-week period to 4-6 months. Because of its > 4 month resorption properties, extended PRF (e-PRF) membranes have been used in dentistry as an alternative to collagen membranes in alveolar ridge preservations, ridge augmentations, soft tissue grafting, and as a barrier membrane in lateral sinus grafting procedures.

Physical exercise impacts bone remodeling around bio-resorbable magnesium implants.

Physical exercise has been shown to induce positive reactions in bone healing but next to nothing is known about how it affects the nanostructure, in particular around implants. In this study, we established this link by using small-angle X-ray scattering tensor tomography (SASTT) to investigate nanostructural parameters in 3D such as mineral particle orientation and thickness. As a model system, rat femoral bone with a bio-resorbable implant (ultra-high purity magnesium) was used.

Objectives: To evaluate the 10-year clinical and radiographic outcomes of peri-implantitis intrabony defects treated with mineralized dehydrated bone allograft (MDBA) and resorbable membrane in patients undergoing a regular supportive peri-implant/periodontal therapy (STP).

Materials And Methods: The original study participants were 34 (34 defects). After mechanical debridement and chemical decontamination of implant surfaces, intrabony defects were filled with MDBA and covered by a resorbable membrane.
